ABSTRACT

A retractable cellular shade is illustrated in various embodiments to consist of a support structure that could assume numerous forms including cellular material, flexible sheets of material, tapes or ribbons, or flexible monofilaments or similar cords of natural or synthetic fibers with the support structure supporting a plurality of vanes or slats in various configurations and orientations. The movement of the vanes or slats is totally dependent upon movement of the support structure. The fabric so formed can be incorporated into a covering for architectural openings with the covering including a headrail with means for gathering the fabric material within the headrail.

FIG. 1 is a top-left isometric view of a covering for an architectural opening in an extended position.

FIG. 2 is a left side elevation view of the covering of FIG. 1, the right side elevation view being a mirror image thereof.

FIG. 3 is a top-left isometric view of the covering of FIG. 1 in a retracted position; and,

FIG. 4 is a left side elevation view of the covering of FIG. 1 in a retracted position, the right side elevation view being a mirror image thereof.

The broken lines, which define the bounds of the claimed design, form no part of the claimed design.
